  • If only I could get addicted to something socially acceptable in under 35 minutes, like doing chores, or at least maths

  • Reddit says it is not covered by new Online Safety Code as it has moved its jurisdiction to the Netherlands

  • Maybe you're right and it could work. I'm afraid there's always a share of sociopaths this will not affect, but this may be seen as impossible to fix anyway. What I am also afraid of is that the speed of changes is glacial in this model, and sometimes people are bullied into suicide in the course of mere weeks

  • Yeah, trusting someone to make right decisions is hard because this trust usually ends up being betrayed sooner or later.

    Regarding the first part, I meant that we as a community can't put enough pressure on a bully to make em leave, if that bully is part of the community that supports em.

  • And what would happen when the community itself is built on hatred and welcomes hate wholeheartedly?

  • Connection to the state sounds like a much better reason than 'being Russian or using Russian email address'. I understand why the internet 'discussion' mostly fails to notice this difference

  • As far as I understand, they don't want to publish new releases there because there's nothing new to release, and they don't have resources to maintain it

  • Except for the countries that have anti-hate laws that are deliberately vague and specifically used to jail anyone who is disliked by the government. China and Russia come to mind as examples, but I'm sure they aren't the only ones.

    Besides hate-speech, I'm not sure how much should be censored really. China does a lot of censoring to 'protect' their citizens from everything, I'm not sure this would be a good thing even if that really was a goal.

    And protecting children from traumatising content looks like another good thing to do, but under that banner I usually see governments doing whatever they want without caring about children past using their image.

  • What's the joke about? Does Ireland block everything that comes from the Netherlands?

  • The empire of C++ strikes back with Safe C++ proposal

    Jump

  • You don't need to use and learn everything, just pick what you need.

    I used to think the same, but now I think you should at least skim through everything. Reason being otherwise you may reinvent the wheel a lot, and there are many use-cases where you really don't want to do that (but C++ makes it so easy, I was constantly tempted to just do what I want and not look for it being already available)

  • A lot of computational heavy tasks for science were done in Fortran at least ten years ago (and I think still are). I was told that's mainly because Fortran has a good deal of libraries for just that, and it was widely taught in academia so this is a common ground between the older and newer generations.

    I think it may be gradually superseded by Python, but I don't know if it is

  • However you define it, a central nervous system or other type of similar central unit would have to be a requirement, because that is what would actually be sentient

    Without CNS there would be something else sophisticated enough to show sentience that would have been sentient. So to me it looks like this is not really a requirement, albeit it's simpler to say that it is.

    As a side note, I think that given how human-centric humans are (which is to be expected, really) even if we were living with another sentient species on the same planet we would argue they are not sentient for whatever reason we could come up with, and change sentience definition accordingly

  • not even all vegans who don't use honey agree on whether or not a vegan can use honey

    Exactly this, veganism is ethical choice, and ethics is not science. You can't 'prove' that something is acceptable, nor vice versa. There are guidelines and discussions but that's pretty much it.

    So this is really not about whether bees are animals or not.

  • How do you make sure you understood the idea if the word choice is incorrect? You may assume from context what the idea was, but you may as well assume wrong. And the more such assumptions exist in one dialogue, the further it is from information exchange, and the closer it is to not listening at all because you already knew the context before the dialogue

  • Regarding the proprietary assets, I used to give it some thought, and came to a conclusion that other than selling consultance services, selling assets is the only way to make money while creating something open source. That's why now I don't find proprietary assets to be something bad.
